Who it is for

DIYers and homeowners who want a clearer understanding of everyday electrical fittings, with patient instruction and practical learning in a small group.

This is introductory DIY training, not an electrical qualification. Attending does not qualify you as an electrician or authorise work that requires inspection, certification or notification. Understanding when to stop and call a qualified electrician is part of the course.
